Review: A Little Trip to Heaven

"attempts to challenge morals and principles, but weak characters, horrible dialogue exchanges and the a storyline which could have used more tweaking could have made this the best film about false insurance claims ever. At least the car accidents are some of the most beautiful pieces of poetry since PTA flipped an ambulance in Magnolia."

Review: KZ

"unlike the hundreds of docs on the holocaust, this film uses absolutely no war footage – the many first person interviews with the towns’ people assure that the collective memory is more horrifying than whatever historical film reel can depict."
